My friends, I once worked at Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), makers of the PDP line (PDP-8 lab mini, PDP-11 minicomputer and micro PC, PDP-10 mainframes running either TOPS-10 or TOPS-20), the famous VAX/VMS, and the last gasp, the nineties' fastest servers, the AlphaServer. I was there from 1985-1998, some of the best years. 
Well, in 2007 HP announced the final manufacturing plans v...
